November... Reflections of a year gone by.

Today I heard a quote: "Every man dies, but not every man really lives".

A year ago what was on my mind, and where did I think my future was taking me? It never occurred to me that I would face a year like this one that has past.


In spite of all the struggles and moments of difficult news, there has been good news, and moments of celebration. Life is funny that way, one huge roller coaster! I remember on the movie "Planet of the Apes" when they crash land on a lake and they escape into a raft and watch their space ship disappear into the water, "going - going - gone..." and as they row to land Charlton Heston says, "we're here now, you'd better get used to it".

So I'm here... Home, and yet "a strange place". Every man dies, but not every man really lives!

Eph.15 & 16 Therefore be careful how you walk, not as unwise men but as wise, making the most of your time, because the days are evil.
